John Morgan of MMA Junkie reported yesterday that Ketlen Vieira vs Marion Reneau has been added to UFC 250 May 9 at Ginasio do Ibirapuera in Sao Paulo, Brazil. This fight is at Bantamweight. A funny thing happen on Ketlen's way to a Bantamweight title shot. She was knocked out by Irene Aldana. So now we have to see how she bounces back from that. Before that, Ketlen was off for two years with a knee injury. She is 28 years old and she trains at Nova Uniao in Brazil. Marion is 42 years old from Visalia, CA. Her record is 9-5-1 and she opened her own gym recently. She has had mixed results in the UFC. She is currently on a two fight losing streak. She is inconsistent. She was supposed to fight Irene Aldana in Sept. but she pulled out. And these two were supposed to fight a couple of years ago but that was around the time Ketlen had knee surgery so it was never announced. I favor Ketlen because fighting at home should motivate her. And after that loss she will want to make a statement.
